Chapter 126: Caught in a trap

When Li Yun came out, Lin Xiao outside said, "Gongzi Li can go find a soup woman and put it on Mrs. Li's stomach to simmer, so that Mrs. Li will be more comfortable, and then prepare some brown sugar and red dates and other things to boil water to drink, nourish qi and blood." ”

Li Yun thought that these things were not available at home, so he greeted Lin Xiao, helped take care of Dian Mingyue, and went down the mountain.

When Mingyue woke up, she felt that her stomach was already better, but her body still felt very tired, and she didn't want to move at all, so she continued to nest in the quilt and looked outside, it was gloomy and gloomy, it seemed that it was going to rain again, and the sound of stir-frying came from the house outside.

After nesting in the quilt for a while, Mingyue got up, put on a pair of cardigans and went out of the room, and saw Lin Xiao cooking behind the stove, but did not see Li Yun.

Lin Xiao heard the movement, turned his head to see Mingyue leaning against the door, and said, "Awake?" Sit and wait for a while, and you'll be ready to eat in no time. ”

Mingyue went out to look at the door, but she didn't see Li Yun, it was gloomy outside, and the rain seemed to be about to fall.

Mingyue came in and walked to the table in the middle of the room and sat down, before she asked Lin Xiao, who was stir-frying behind the stove, "What about Li Yun?" ”

Lin Xiao's movements didn't stop, and he said, "Gongzi Li went to the town to buy something, he has been there for a long time, and he should be back soon." ”

Mingyue propped her head and looked out of the door, and said worriedly, "It looks like it's going to rain, and it's estimated that it will rain again if it's too late." ”

As he was talking, there was a sound at the courtyard door outside, and soon Li Yun came in with a bag of things.

Seeing Mingyue sitting on the table, Li Yun put down the package in his hand, sat down next to Mingyue and put together the jacket draped outside for Mingyue, and said worriedly, "How did you get up?" Can there be better? ”

Mingyue responded, "It's much better, what did you go out to buy?" ”

Hearing Mingyue's question, Li Yun opened the package on the table, and said in his mouth, "What Lin Xiao has prepared is good for your body." ”

As he spoke, he took the soup woman and got up, took the kettle with boiling water in the hole on the side of the stove, filled the soup woman and sealed it, and then handed it to Mingyue, "Cover it on your stomach, Lin Xiao said that it will be more comfortable." ”

Mingyue obediently hugged Tang Pozi and covered her stomach, secretly slandering herself in her heart, she didn't expect Lin Xiao to even know this, she was really convinced.

After that, Li Yun was busy boiling brown sugar water for Mingyue's warm medicine, and Mingyue sat on the table, bored watching the two men busy going in and out.

Mingyue also felt very uncomfortable on the first day, and the second day was much better, Mingyue wanted to go down the mountain to see if the uncle had come back, and asked about the situation, but it was raining again, but Li Yun would not let Mingyue go out in this weather, Mingyue didn't make Li Yun clear about it, and Mingyue didn't let Mingyue get her hands on things at home, Mingyue, who had nothing to do, had to find a pen and paper to come out, lie on the table to write and draw, and write her plan to open a hospital.

But when the first article was written, Mingyue was stumped, the capital of opening a hospital must be there first, so making money has become the first priority, but how to make money? Mingyue lay on the table, thinking hollowly, this hunting to support the family is okay, counting on this to make money, it is too tiring and too dangerous; What about herb picking? Unless you pick a few more ginseng like before, but last time it was pure luck, and I haven't encountered it again after entering the mountain a few times, and the risk factor is also too high, so it can't be done.

Li Yun came over and sat down next to Mingyue, and saw Mingyue lying on the table, nodding for a while, shaking her head for a while, and looking worried.

"What are you thinking?"

Mingyue was interrupted by Li Yun's words, and replied casually, "Thinking about how to make money!" ”

Li Yun was a little puzzled, "Isn't there five hundred taels at home?" ”

Mingyue looked at Li Yun, "Five hundred taels is enough to open a hospital, it is estimated that it is not enough to repair one building." ”

Li Yun finally needed the reason why Mingyue needed money, seeing Mingyue's frowning, Li Yun hesitated for a long time before he spoke, "I have some, how much do you need?" ”

Mingyue stared at Li Yun with wide eyes, "Didn't you give it to me with your purse?" Hidden private money? ”

Seeing Mingyue's expression of asking about the guilt, a smile appeared on Li Yun's face, and he explained, "It's not in my hands, what my biological father left behind, it's on the mountain, and I plan to leave it for Yan Jiu." ”

Mingyue said with a look of hope, "You haven't given it to him yet, have you?" ”

But I heard Li Yun say, "I have already told Yan Jiu about the mountain, but he doesn't need it now, he still has it on the mountain, if you need it, you can ask Yan Jiu for some." ”

Mingyue pursed her mouth, "It's all in Yan Jiu's hands, forget it, I'll figure it out myself." ”

She didn't believe that she, a modern person hundreds or thousands of years more advanced than this era, couldn't think of a way to make money.

So Mingyue continued to lie back on the table and began to think about her money-making plan, and finally Mingyue decided to go to the county seat for a walk and inspect the market.

On the third day, the weather also cleared, and Mingyue felt comfortable, but she couldn't stay in the house anymore, so she coaxed and coquettishly pulled Li Yun up the mountain early in the morning.

Walking around, because of the rain, there were a lot of mountain mushrooms on the mountain, and the two of them picked a lot of mountain mushrooms together, and beat six or seven pheasants and hares before going back.

Lin Xiao didn't go into the mountain, but she consciously made breakfast, she had been living in seclusion all year round, Lin Xiao did these things decently, sometimes more careful than Mingyue.

After breakfast, Mingyue planned to go back to Mingyue's house first, Li Yun wanted Mingyue to rest at home for two days, but Mingyue didn't listen, and he didn't worry about Mingyue alone, so he had to follow Mingyue down the mountain together.

Carrying two pheasants and a hare, the two went down the mountain together to Ming's house, just entered the door, and saw a large family eating breakfast in the house, there was no old lady Ming at the dinner table, Mingyue guessed that it was estimated that she was still lying in the house.

Old Man Ming was sitting in a position just facing the door, glanced at Mingyue and Li Yun who entered the door, did not make a sound, and continued to eat with his head down, it seemed that this time the incident hit him hard.

Ming Wenli was the first to say hello, "Yue'er is back?" Have you had breakfast? ”

Mingyue nodded, "After eating, you eat first, let's sit in the courtyard for a while." ”

While talking, he had already helped Li Yun remove the basket on his back, and the two sat down in the courtyard.

Xu Jinniang got up and went to the house to carry the teapot and teacup out, ready to pour tea for Li Yun and Mingyue, Mingyue took the teapot and poured water herself, and said, "Mother, let's go eat first." ”

Xu Jinniang sat down opposite the two of them and responded, "I'm full, are you feeling better?" ”

Mingyue nodded, "Much better." ”

Li Yun, who was sitting on the side and had always talked little, suddenly said, "It's not okay, I asked her to rest at home, she didn't listen, my mother has to talk about her." ”

Mingyue didn't expect Li Yun to sue herself, and turned her head to look at Li Yun in a moment's daze.

But at this time, Xu Jinniang on the other side had already opened her mouth to reprimand, "You kid, why did you come out again before your health is well, and your son-in-law is also for your good, you still don't listen." ”

Mingyue hurriedly smiled flatteringly, "I really don't have anything to do, that's Li Yun who made too much of a fuss." ”

Xu Jinniang glared at Mingyue, "How did I teach you, there is no politeness at all, if you are like this outside, others should poke your backbone and scold you for being uneducated." ”

This is not the first time that she has been reprimanded by her mother because of her title, Mingyue replied, "I was wrong." After that, he quietly muttered, "Isn't it just a title!" ”

At this time, Ming Wenli also came over, Xu Jinniang originally wanted to explain a few more words, but when she saw Ming Wenli coming, she swallowed back, got up and said, "You sit down and talk to the fourth uncle for a while, and I'll clean up the dishes and chopsticks." ”

Mingyue hurriedly pointed to the back basket on the side, "Mother, take this in, stew it to make up for your body." ”

Xu Jinniang wanted to say let me take it back, but thinking about what Mingyue said, she still didn't say it in the end, this is also Mingyue's filial piety as a granddaughter, and she shouldn't stop it, so she carried the basket and entered the house.

Seeing that her mother left with the basket, Mingyue asked the fourth uncle, "Is the milk better?" ”

Mingwen said, "Zhang Langzhong came to see it again yesterday, there is no problem, just take care of it." Are you sick? How is the body uncomfortable? ”

Mingyue replied casually, "A little problem, it's fine." ”

Then Mingyue looked into the house, and the master had already gotten off the table and entered the room, so she lowered her voice and asked, "Is it okay, why do I look weird?" And didn't you go to the county seat to find that Liu Fu, what's the situation? ”

Ming Wenli sighed and said, "Ye is that so much money is suddenly gone, and he has been hit, as for Liu Fu's side, what he has done is not leaky, it is a businessman from Yanjing, who said that he would cooperate to open a big restaurant in the county, and the location is optimistic, but the businessman from Yanjing ran away with the money." After that, we also went to inquire, and there is indeed such a person, and now that the person is gone, we also went to report to the official, but it is estimated that there is no hope of getting it back. ”

"Is that really being deceived?"

Ming Wenli snorted coldly, "I think my father and mother drilled Liu Fu's trick, as far as Liu Fu is concerned, will he give all the money to buy the house to the businessman from Yanjing, and give him a chance to run away?" It's just that my father and mother are so stupid, Liu Fu coaxed him, and gave him all the money in his hand, if it weren't for the fact that the beauty was still in his house, I would have to beat him. ”

Mingyue sighed, "If there is no evidence, the fourth uncle should not act recklessly, if the money is gone, it will be gone, isn't there still land, a house and food." ”

Ming Wenli nodded, "Fortunately, my mother left a hundred taels at home before, and I plan to build a new house over there first, but this is only the last beam and tile, if you let the rain fall down, it will be a big loss." ”

Mingyue nodded and responded, "That's to build it up quickly, it has to rain at both ends in the past three days, and the new wall can't withstand such a shower, Xianggong, do you have a silver ticket with you?" Give another hundred taels to the fourth uncle, I'm afraid it won't be enough by then. ”

Seeing that Li Yun had already put his hand into his arms, Ming Wenli hurriedly shook his head and refused, "No, one hundred taels is enough, the tiles were all ordered for money before, so I only asked the craftsman to build the beams and tiles and needed some money." ”

Seeing Ming Wenli's expression of refusal, Li Yun did not continue to take out the silver ticket, but only said, "If you need anything, just say it." ”

Ming Wenli nodded, thinking that at the beginning, because Mingyue was going to marry Li Yun, Li Yun was a paralyzed person, and he had a cold and cold expression at any time, and he didn't give Li Yun a lot of faces, but now Mingyue asked him to pay for it, although the expression on his face was still similar to before, he didn't even think about the action of taking out the money, which made him a little ashamed.
